PANTS. Although the whole of the U.K can rush out and buy the new
release, Dublin is lacking behind, preventing me from listening till
god knows when. I miss Glasgow.

Sorry, but "La Pastie" doesn't mean anything in french... Maybe in italian (it
sounds like an italian word, translated in french!!!) However, phonetically, it
could be apathy...
And "la bourgeoisie" is the middle class.
Question : do you think we'll very soon be able to buy the B&S new single in
France? Or should I order it through the net? Or go to London next week???

You know how tigermilk was recorded as a project by a bunch of students
at Stow College in Glasgow? I would be interested to know if any of
those aforementioned students are on this list. Bit of a long shot? I
think so.
I don't know if stow college even has e-mail. It's a dive of a place.
An eyesore. It smells.
Apologies to anyone who thinks stow college is nice. It's not.

Just reminds me of that thing when Bowie got everyone to vote for what songs he'd play on his "Sound and Vision" tour 1990 - and NME encouraged everyone to phone in and vote for the Laughing Gnome!

> I come from a predominantly heavy metal village.
Funny, I was born in East Germany, and East Germany in the 70's and 80's
seemed to be one big heavy metal village. Small world!

I wouldn't have said Jeff Buckley was country influenced. He was more
sort of dreamy Led Zep sort of Sting kind of Ella Fitzgerald. He had
one of the most incredible voices that I've ever heard. I was lucky
enough to see him in 1995 and he was splendid. I always thought he
would go on to be a total megastar cos he pretty much had it all -
songs, voice, looks you know. Such a waste upsets me greatly.
<pause>
I'll have to lighten the mood now

someone asked what "...pastie..." meant but I've forgotton who.
The whole title means something along the line of,
"the apathy of the aristocracy"
but I could be wrong.

Anyway the second bit of the subject line:
I'm considering ripping the design of my site to shreds and doing
something decent for once.
To do this I need some help from someone with graphics abilities and
maybe also a graphic designer.
All the HTML and gimmicks should be just within my capabilities,
so if you're any good with JPG's and GIF's and Animated things, please
get in touch (I don't need apps, I just need designers!).
Thanks

I went to see David Lee Roth when I was 13. He sang california girls
and rode round the Hall on a giant inflatable microphone. He was
brilliant.
I think it would be nice if B & S got some of those pantomime wires on
stage so that they could fly about like Bon Jovi in the "Livin on A
Prayer" video. I always enjoy it when pop stars do that.
P.S. Im getting upset with my e-mail - it's so slow. It takes like a
day for anyone to recieve my letters after I've sent them, and you've
all started talking about something else by the time mine arrives. I'm
on the huff.

> Who liked John Denver? I did. "Leaving On a Jet Plane" is my kareoke
> piece. Jeff Buckley and John Denver in the one year. bummer.
Hmm.......I like [in the present] John Denver a great deal; I don't know
half as much of that kind of music as I know I, and everyone, should know,
but yes it's a shame he's died. However, I wasn't too distraught seeing as
I certainly don't remember him releasing anything during my lifetime, so
it's not really a great personal loss.
However, I did listen to some of his 'Greatest Hits' yesterday; 'Follow Me'
is truly a wonderful song. And the duet he did with Placedo Domingo works
frighteningly well. A bit of history from the Obituary I scanned in a free
second today - Leaving on a Jet Plane was pretty much his first released
material - it was soon covered by the bizzare trio of Peter, Paul and Mary
[Haha! - Remember?], which gained him some reputation and his first album
sold well as a result. Then his first big solo thing was This was all,
what, early-mid70s?
Jeff Buckley I know nothing about. He certainly sounds intersting, but then
people are hardly likely to understate someone's talent after they died,
are they?
But is he basically country-influenced, only I take it more 'modern' than
someone like Denver, or James Taylor, who is the other singer-songwriter
who I know quite well......?

Hi everyone!
Wanted: More discussion about lyrics...
I just started thinking yesterday ( for the first time - ha ha. If anyone
wanted to get a sarcastic shot at this staement, well I beat you to it:-)),
when I got the new Ep, about "Le pastie...".
First I thought it was a ordinary "you´re so lonely, nobody understands you
and they are evil and so buorgeoise or what ever it´s spelled"-kinda song
(just like the great favourite "Expectations"). But then isn´t "Le pastie"
a song thats quite mean to the "you"-figure in the song, with the singer
being quite sarcastic about the goodness and specialness of the spolied
Bourgeoisie-brat who just wants to get away, spending her time reading
Salinger and Kerouac?
I don´t know, maybe this is clear for everyone, but I find it quite
interesting as "Le pastie" must be the most "agressive" B&S song since "Me
and the major". And in that case quite agressive to B&S fans too, i
suppose:-)
Maybe I should just have gone to bed after watching "Friends" yesterday
instead of staying up all night with the new EP...?
(yes you should have - ha ha. I`ve beaten you again)
